of Debris
MIRacle pressure clamps are pinned in place and easily changeable
within seconds. A high-pressure clamp is recommended for
most applications and is available in digital, rotating and viewing
versions. All clamps (except the viewing clamp) include tips for
hard, soft and pellet shaped samples. High-pressure clamps are
calibrated to deliver over 10,000 psi of pressure when used with
the single reflection crystal plates.
Ability to deliver high pressure is very important for achieving
spectral quality. In the example below, we demonstrate spectral
differences for a porous polymer sample measured with the
micrometer clamp and the high-pressure clamp. Clearly the
spectrum obtained using the high-pressure clamp is required
for a high quality result.
MIRacle high-pressure clamps utilize a slip-clutch mechanism
to prevent excessive pressure from being applied to the crystal.

MIRacle Sampling Options
The MIRacle can be configured with optional resistively heated
crystal plates using a PIKE temperature control module. Digital
and digital with PC control versions are available. The PC control
module includes TempPRO software which provides a graphical
user interface for temperature control and kinetic measurements.
An optional water
jacket for MIRacle ATR
crystal plates provides
the ability to cool or
elevate ATR sampling
temperature via a
water circulator.

MIRacle ATR Summary
The MIRacle ATR accessory is a high performance FTIR sampling
tool for solid, liquid, or polymer samples. Easily changeable crystal
plates provide optimized spectral data for unique sample types.
With options for single or three reflection crystal plates, several
pressure clamp styles and heating or cooling the MIRacle is able
to address a wide range of FTIR sampling applications.
